    Thanks Trevor, I actually don't mind the food either and rather enjoy it. Its far improved when I was younger staying in hospital, food back then was 🤢. They use a seperate company for meals and usually come round with an ipad/tablet day before and take your order, so far i've not disliked anything.

    The nurse has just put my feed on, it now runs for 10 hours and I've got some IV Paracetamol going, so when this is done i'll be off to try sleep. Thanks again for asking how I was doing, i'll catch you tomorrow.

    Night.

    As I said previously, I currently have an issue with one of my legs and lying on my bed, so like you I may sleep during the day for a few hours then do something on my tablet (this forum etc) then have another doze. That's why I could be on here in the middle of the night.

    Hope you are feeling better!

    ahh I see, I'm sorry to hear that, that sounds uncomfortable. I'm feeling abit better each day now so finally making progress. Doctor and Dietician are pleased, they say if I handle and tolerate food I can get the NG removed Monday, and if my pain keeps improving they will look at possibly getting me home sometime next week.

    I've also managed to walk abit and get some fresh air, it causes me alot of pain and I can only walk slow, but its start and trying to do abit each day now to build myself up. I do need painkillers still when back, but atleast i'm not collapsing or getting stuck downstairs.

    Abit of progress each day now, and finally moving in the right direction.

    I hope your leg eases abit so you manage to get some rest, nothing worst than being in pain but being tired and wanting to sleep.

    Take care.

    Thanks Rubin. Great you are on the mend, keep it up! If you have lost some unwanted weight, don't put it back on, you'll be better of without it! I know you said you had lost weight.

    The leg pain is going, like your stomach is improving so is my leg!

    I was rather chunky last month, now i'm quite slim and apart from being ill its one good thing to take away from this experience.

    I’m so happy you are getting better @rubin16. Just take it one day at a time, plenty of rest when you can and eat small portions but a few times a day so you have a better chance of keeping the food down. Take care

    Its been great thanks, I woke up this morning feeling tons better and alot less pain, I started walking too (just going slow) but its nice to just be able to get some fresh air, i'm hoping my pain is even better in the morning, as its been improving each day now. Just waiting for my review on Monday to see if I can have tube out, and if so theres a big chance I could be home Monday or Tuesday.

    Can't wait to get home now.

    Hope your okay @Trevor_PIP and hope your leg is not causing you too much pain.
